Hosting for Backend & Database Development Modules

Student Web Host Manager (SWHM) provides secure, automated PHP & MySQL hosting for backend development, database design, CRUD applications, and API teaching — fully aligned with teaching blocks and academic deadlines.


Why Backend & Database Modules Need Real Hosting

Backend programming and database development require more than a code editor — students need real servers, real databases, real connections and real deployment environments. SWHM gives every student a safe, isolated space to build:

  • CRUD applications
  • Authentication systems
  • REST API endpoints
  • PHP-based dynamic sites
  • MySQL-driven web applications
  • Server-side processing workflows

Instead of simulations, students gain experience with actual hosting systems used in industry.

Automatic Database & Hosting Provisioning

When a student logs into SWHM via Azure AD:

  • A cPanel hosting account is created automatically
  • A MySQL database is provisioned instantly
  • phpMyAdmin access becomes available immediately
  • Secure isolation ensures no cross-account access
  • A domain/subdomain is created for deployment
  • SSL is installed automatically

This removes all setup delays and eliminates manual IT workload.

Perfect for Backend-Focused Courses

SWHM supports the full backend teaching curriculum, including:

  • Server-Side Programming (PHP)
  • Database Design & MySQL
  • API & Microservice Development
  • Form Handling & Authentication
  • Data Models & Relationship Structures
  • Session & State Management

Real-World Database Skills

Students learn essential backend concepts using real tools:

  • Executing SQL queries
  • Managing database tables
  • Creating indexes and relationships
  • Connecting PHP applications to databases
  • Debugging database connection issues
  • Working with live data

This mirrors industry workflows — ideal for employability-focused modules.

Teaching Block Automation & Deadline Control

Backend projects often involve continuous updates. SWHM ensures accurate assessment and academic integrity:

  • Start of block: account activated
  • End of block: account suspended instantly
  • Password rotation: prevents post-deadline edits
  • Marking period: site remains visible to lecturers
  • Extensions: enabled for specific students

No more late edits, disputes or manual intervention from lecturers.

Lecturer Dashboard & Cohort Monitoring

Lecturers can view:

  • Every student’s project URL
  • Database status & hosting activity
  • Active or suspended state
  • Login and engagement history
  • Group project allocations
